The Night Agent Season 3 hasn't been shy about using flashbacks. But Episode 7, fittingly titled "Once Upon a Time...", takes the idea a bit further. Instead of just sticking one at the start, half of the runtime is devoted to scenes stretching as far back as February 1995, which are intended to add some important context to Jacob's past and his relationship with Isabel.

As we enter the back half of The Night Agent Season 3, Episode 6 feels like a clear turning point, the kind of episode that delivers some pretty key revelations that recontextualise everything we've seen thus far.

There have been some turns already in The Night Agent Season 3, but the biggest one yet is to be found in Episode 5, “The Isolation Play”....

Things are heating up in The Night Agent Season 3, even though Episode 4 has the coldest setting yet. A swanky hunting lodge in the wintry forests...

Who’d be Peter Sutherland? Sure, he’s the star of one of Netflix’s most unexpected hits, but his life sucks. None of his relationships work out....

“Dark Matters” is one of those functional early-season chapters that isn’t exactly thrilling but does a lot of necessary legwork to get the plot moving...

I started my coverage of The Night Agent Season 3 by reminding everyone that Peter Sutherland is a deeply terrible undercover agent, so Episode 2 shouldn’t come...

Peter Sutherland is many things, but a good undercover agent isn’t one of them. He has been pretty frantic all throughout The Night Agent, but...

I’m not sure about this one. Cross has been pretty good so far in Season 2 and had just nicely reached a pretty interesting fork in the...

Delayed gratification is the art of making someone wait for something they definitely want, and it’s an idea very neatly displayed in Episode 5 of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms.

Cross Season 2 has been pretty tight-lipped when it comes to providing answers about what’s really going on. This is to be expected, of course,...

Cross Season 2 seems to know where it’s going, and is in a hurry to get there. This is no bad thing, in my view,...

The first season of Cross was pretty dark, granted, but it wasn’t “burning alive and cutting the fingers off of rich child predators” dark, so...

This is pretty reductive to say, and I’ll obviously expand on it, but the truth about Cross Season 2 is essentially this – if you...

Things are really starting to heat up in Memory of a Killer now. If Episode 3 was all about teasing out Angelo’s worsening Alzheimer’s issues, making vague hints about who the Ferryman might be and who might be double-crossing whom, Episode 4, “Unhappy Ending”, is about fleshing those lingering suspicions out into full-blown theories.

I do like Memory of a Killer, and I think it has a fundamentally great premise, but you can feel it wearing a little bit in Episode 3, “Samurai”. This is partly the fault of Angelo himself, who is rather in denial about his worsening memory issues and keeps neglecting them, making his already complicated situation even worse.

In its limited screentime thus far, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms has done a pretty remarkable job of communicating a much more hopeful tone than you’d necessarily expect from a show set in the same brutal universe as Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon.

I think it’s fair to say that Spartacus: House of Ashur has earned a finale like Episode 10, “Hail Caesar”. Things haven’t been going especially well for...

And there it is, ladies and gentlemen. The big reveal of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms finally arrives in Episode 3, "The Squire", and it's about time, too, since virtually everyone watching the show will have figured it out already.

When I first heard tell of a straight-to-streaming action movie starring Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista, I feared the worst. And it’s on Prime Video,...
